So nice to see Dave and Bas.. interesting debate about the iPad
Well my husband has one [I don't too many gadgets!!]
OK the point I will make about ipad is this for those that travel much on trains it is the alternative to the laptop it is small hand-held device that basically does what your laptop does. Bas mentioned the flipboard connects you to facebook, tweeter, shared links etc, [laptop does that too] and there is the Docs to go! a word processing application very good.
In my opinion I think we could have too many gadgets and some basically do more or less same thing ! for those that do not want to carry a laptop [heavy] and risk loosing them or leaving them on the train, yes the ipad is the alternative a smart way to go about your business !

Thanks Vasoula! I completely agree. My original personal interest in the iPad arose mostly from my spine... which was really tired of lugging so much gear on the plane each week. Any chance to save a few lbs. when I load my backpack is definitely a good thing.
I do think that it represents a new way of working though, and I''m very curious to see if the idea of a tablet computer will finally survive in an office setting and also in seeing how it will change the way people work.
Happy New Year!
Dave
I got an iPad recently but I haven't found a suite of useful, affordable apps to make it useful for business purposes. I suppose if I used certain online collaboration tools I'd be able to download the relevant apps for that, but I don't.
I do like it though, and I do use it a lot, but more for email, and games!

Must say the ipad becomes the link between the phone and the laptop. Quick mailing and checking on progress i find easier on the phone. Complete documents and excels still on the laptop.
I use it for browsing the internet, reading documents during travel, less kilos and good quality to read
Idea Sketch is is a nice tool to structure you thoughts
and yeah gaming is fun as well
